Initially called &#8220;Do the Bop,&#8221; the song was heard by Dick Clark, who suggested they change the band name to the Juniors and the chorus from &#8220;Let&#8217;s all do the Bop&#8221; to &#8220;Let&#8217;s go to the Hop.&#8221;After performing the song on Clark&#8217;s show American Bandstand, it gained popularity and went to the top of the US charts, remaining at number one for five weeks. The song describes the scene at a record hop, particularly the dances being performed and the interaction with the disc jockey host.<\/dir>We walked Five Miles and stopped to take a picture of our favorite mosquito.\u00a0 He belongs to a nature photographer who lives around the block from us.\u00a0 &#8220;Whimsical,&#8221;\u00a0 I believe he said when we asked about his collection of front yard decorations.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_56329\" style=\"width: 2526px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2021\/09\/mosquito.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-56329\" class=\"size-full wp-image-56329\" src=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2021\/09\/mosquito.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2516\" height=\"1887\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2021\/09\/mosquito.jpg 2516w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2021\/09\/mosquito-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2021\/09\/mosquito-450x338.jpg 450w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2021\/09\/mosquito-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2021\/09\/mosquito-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2021\/09\/mosquito-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2021\/09\/mosquito-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2516px) 100vw, 2516px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-56329\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The huge mosquito was eyeing Paul&#8217;s tender legs!<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Mary headed to work, and I worked for hours in the office, hiding the electrical connections, filing papers, and paying bills.\u00a0 I finally had to tell Verizon to send me paper bills as their connection to BofA was not working; three months later, I got a message that my bill was late!\u00a0 I gave them the what for and finally changed back to reliable paper.<\/p>\n<p>Around 3:00 PM, I headed to CVS to pick up a prescription and then to the cleaners.
